If you read the manual that was supplied with your 'Bandy 2006 edn' you'll find the answer to most things. The 2006 is an upgrade on all previous models so please make sure you read the manual and keep the bandy regularly serviced.
There is a slight change to the manual's service intervals that has yet to be released:
Servicing periods - 6 monthly or after 20 concerts or 10 marching displays (1 Marching display = 2 concerts)

By not sticking to these service intervals you may invalidate any warranty on your 2006 Bandy.

Giving grief to a Bandy 2006 is not advised in the first 6 months as mental breakdown isn't covered until after that period has elapsed. In the event of physical breakdown or breakage you will be sent a replacement Bandy 2006 until yours is repaired at one of our approved Royal Marine Musician repair centres. Please check the Bandy's name and if they have a BA after their name it means they are part of the Bandy Association and you will also have Gigside assistance, Gig start and full Bandy Recovery back to an approved repair centre.
Have fun with your new Bandy 2006 but please read the manual, severe overloading of the Alcohol System is no longer covered by the BA

Oh dear not again Green Fairy. Anything to get out of marching as usual. Or perhaps you're missing the lovely (but mad) Corps Of Drums. We will all have to start practice again just to cheer you up.

OUCH! I've just broken my right leg, sprained my left ankle, and I have 12 ingrowing toenails BUT I WILL STILL MARCH.

Well well well.

The bandroom is tidy, the phone is being answered, the FHM calendar has been replaced with a '$hit happens' poster and the battered sax case will soon be departing. Start of a new era!

No, the lesson is postponed. The phone was ringing off the hook, and as his first gig, he needed to concentrate on tonight.
